Lengthening the show run until 8th January 2023, tickets will be available from Wednesday (7th December) at 7.30am at www.itison.com/elfingrove, giving fans another chance to get their skates on and enjoy the event being named, ‘better than Lapland’ and ‘the best Christmas event in Glasgow ever’, by visitors.

This year, itison set out to make Elfingrove bigger, snowier and glowier than ever and according to reviews have been more than successful. The event has been gaining traction from attendees praising the event for its ice-rink, which is the UK’s biggest and has a dedicated spectator area, its Snow Wheel with views across Glasgow, as well as bookable Skate-Side-Dining, an Apres Skate Bar and Candyland for foodies.

The new dates will also extend some of the brand-new skating sessions added to Elfingrove this year, allowing couples, families, and friends, to make the most of their Christmas holidays at the Elfingrove Skate School for adults and kids, enjoy a Relaxed Session for those with sensory needs, or Skate with our Snow Princesses for those looking for a touch of Ice Magic over the festive break.

Creator of Elfingrove and itison CEO, Oli Norman, said: “The reviews this year have been incredible, and since opening we’ve seen a boost in ticket sales as people share their own experience and images of everything we have on at Elfingrove this year, so why not extend the joy and make the Christmas cheer last into January.

“It means so much to see and hear how much people have enjoyed the show this year, I’d like to give a big thank you to everyone who has come and joined us so far, and I can’t wait to welcome even more of you to blast away those post-Christmas January blues.”

Tickets are still up for grabs, and are available exclusively on www.itison.com/elfingrove

Skate Side Dining is bookable via www.itison.com

itison’s E.L.F (Elf Legacy Fund) is back for 2022 and will be donating 4,000 free tickets to local charities, community groups and causes to help those who might not be able to attend otherwise.
